Wood Woods Are Perfect Accents For All Occasions

I love the decor style called “Americana”. And Wood Words is the perfect stamp set to create a unique Americana look.  I know I probably say this about every stamp set, but Wood Words was one of the first sets to catch my eye.  I like rustic looks and this stamp set is perfect for this.

Also perfect for this look is one of the papers from the Wood Textures DSP Stack. I love these papers for their realistic look and what I will be able to do for both decor items and cards.  I had not tried a thing with these fabulous papers.  But today I saw a great Americana room look on an e-mail from Birch Lane.  While I love the look, re-decorating a room is not something I want to do right now.  Next best thing to getting my creativity fix for Americana?  A card, of course!

Here’s a close-up of the card so you can see just how realistic the paper looks! It appears I have stamped on a whitewashed board. But this is paper.

Americana is the first thing that came to mind for the Wood Words set, but it also perfect for fall and Thanksgiving cards.  And I can’t wait to try out some decor using the coordinating Wood Crate dies!  You can see the beautiful rustic designs in the stamp set below.

And with all the beautiful DSP and embellishments that go with this suite, you can see below how perfect this set is for fall decor and card making. The wood crates are cut from the dies in the Wood Crate Framelits. I can see them as perfect treat containers for fall, Thanksgiving, Halloween or Christmas!

Check out this new suite soon! I know you will love the rustic , vintage look and come up with great ideas for using this for your fall gifting, decor and card making!
